Rails Ahead

Made for ScoreSpace #18 in three days by a team of two programmers and one artist.

Use your magnetic gun to gather the needed resources along the infinite rail.

Build your ever moving train while being hunted by a giant monster robot in a dystopian world. Defend against waves of robotic enemies while staying on the move and fight for survival. Improve your train, gather food, add new train wagons and shoot down attacking foes like drones.

Important Buttons:

• Press "1" or "Middle Mouse Button" to whip out your Magnet Gun
• Press "Right Mouse Button" to load a Bolt into your Magnet Run
• Press "Left Mouse Button" to Activate/Deactivate/Shoot your Magnet Gun

What's working:

• World Generation (with two Biomes)
• Magnet Gun (Press 1 or Middle Mouse Button)
• Shooting Bolt with your Magnet Gun (Right Mouse Button)
• Leaderboard (Die to upload your Score)
• Survival Mechanics
• Interact with Objects (Press F)
• Eating Birds
• Getting Experience Point (currently only by eating birds, lol)
• Upgrade your Character (Press U)
• Shooting Bird with Bolts to make them magnetic
• Train whistle
• Detatching wagons
• Reattach wagons using the Magnet Gun
• Adding coal to your engine
• Spawn new wagons
• Some more stuff that the player is currently not able to experience (sorry...)
• And much more (but actually not that much)

What's still in the making:

• Crafting and Loot Generation
• Building system & upgrade your existing train
• More Engine Types (Fuel, Electric and More)
• Waves of Enemy drones that will attack you
• Getting stomped by the Giant Robot
• More Biomes

Which premade Assets did we use?

Some small sound effects, but most of them are custom made. Everything else was created by the three of us, including all models, the soundtrack, UI elements and much more.

Have fun!
